This multicenter case-control study in Iran (n=226) examined associations between mobile phone use and breast cancer outcomes in women. Reporting more than 60 minutes/day of phone conversations was associated with higher odds of confirmed invasive breast cancer and of being classified as a suspected case versus <10 minutes/day. The authors emphasize that the results do not establish causation and may be influenced by self-reported exposure and residual confounding, warranting cautious interpretation.

This magazine article reviews the Japan-Korea "NTP Lite" RF animal toxicity collaboration and its relationship to prior NTP (2018) and Ramazzini Institute reports of RF-associated tumors in male rats. It notes NTP Lite used a single whole-body SAR of 4 W/kg and completed a two-year exposure phase in 2022, but final reporting is delayed with histopathology and genotoxicity work ongoing. The author highlights protocol harmonization across labs while raising concerns about unexplained animal deaths and physiological differences in exposed groups, and frames the broader evidence as supportive of RF-related cancer risk in laboratory animals.

This article reviews the microwave auditory effect (perceived clicks/buzzing) that can occur when the head is exposed to pulsed microwave energy, such as from radar. It explores whether this phenomenon could plausibly explain reported “anomalous health incidents” (Havana syndrome), noting that experts and formal panels have suggested it as a possible explanation. The authors emphasize that potential links between pulsed microwave exposures, audible sensations, and other physiological impacts warrant careful consideration and further research.

This animal study examined Wi-Fi RF-EMR exposure in adult zebrafish (4 hours/day for 30 days) and assessed reproductive tissues and offspring outcomes. The abstract reports testicular and ovarian histopathological abnormalities in exposed adults. Offspring from exposed parents, maintained under EMF-free conditions, reportedly showed increased mortality, morphological abnormalities, and anxiety-like behavior, with malformations increasing with longer parental exposure.

This animal study used Drosophila knockout lines to examine whether visual (Rh1) versus non-visual (Rh7) opsins contribute to blue-light-associated neural damage. Flies were continuously exposed to 488 nm blue light from egg deposition to 20 days, and brain DNA damage and vacuolisation were assessed. The study reports greater DNA damage and neurodegeneration markers in Rh1 knockout flies than in wild-type or Rh7 knockout flies, and concludes Rh1 is a predominant mediator of blue-light-induced neurotoxicity in the fly CNS.

This paper discusses electromagnetic (EM) fields as an environmental health and sustainability issue in the built and lived environment, particularly with expanding ICT and energy systems. It reports conducting a literature review and EM field audits in three locations across two cities in Canada and the UK to examine exposure trends and review major safety guidelines. The authors propose transition pathways toward “electromagnetic sustainability,” emphasizing planning, exposure reduction, and risk governance.

This study assessed whether sleeping with versus without a mobile phone (two-week intervals) affects sleep in medical students, using smartwatch-based monitoring. It reports no statistically significant differences in sleep quality or time spent in wakefulness, REM, light, or deep sleep between conditions. The authors report a statistically significant effect on minimum and average blood oxygen saturation during sleep and call for further research on nightly RF-EMF exposure.

This animal study examined whether prenatal exposure to 3.5 GHz radiofrequency radiation (2 hours/day) affects male reproductive outcomes later in life. Male rat offspring assessed at 12 months showed multiple adverse testicular and cellular findings in exposed groups versus sham controls, including impaired spermatogenesis markers, increased abnormal sperm morphology, increased DNA damage, and increased apoptosis, with full-gestation exposure generally most pronounced. The authors interpret the results as evidence of persistent reproductive toxicity from prenatal exposure and call for further mechanistic work and precautionary actions.

This narrative review explores potential links between EMF exposure, metallic or mixed-metal dental restorations, and reported systemic and neurological symptoms despite normal diagnostic findings. It discusses hypothesized quantum-biological mechanisms (including spin dynamics and radical-pair mechanisms) that could mediate interactions between EMFs and dental metals. The authors conclude that the complexity of these interactions warrants more rigorous research and emphasize that a possible health-risk link should not be ignored.

This conference paper uses COMSOL Multiphysics simulations to evaluate thermal and SAR-based exposure limits for modeled human skin exposed to terahertz radiation (0.1–5 THz). The authors report negligible temperature increases at power densities consistent with keeping SAR below 1.6 W/kg, but note that higher power densities can yield minimal heating while producing SAR values above recognized safety thresholds. They conclude that existing sub-THz standards are not directly transferable to the full THz band and call for updated guidelines, especially for prolonged exposure.

This paper evaluates and critiques 12 WHO-commissioned systematic reviews and meta-analyses on RF-EMF health effects across outcomes including cancer and reproductive endpoints. It argues that serious methodological flaws and limitations in the WHO reviews prevent them from providing assurance of safety for cell phones and other wireless devices. The authors highlight reported evidence in the animal cancer review (high certainty for heart schwannomas; moderate certainty for brain gliomas) and describe dose-related adverse effects on male fertility and reproductive outcomes, including at exposure levels below current ICNIRP thresholds.

The review states there is no scientific consensus on whether Wi‑Fi (2.4/5 GHz) contributes to Alzheimer's disease through oxidative stress, and that existing results are mixed and inconclusive. It discusses an indirect analysis linking oxidative-stress-responsive genes after 2.4 GHz exposure with genes associated with Alzheimer's disease. The authors suggest chronic exposure could affect regulation of neurodegeneration-related genes (e.g., GSK3B, APOE), while emphasizing that a direct relationship has not been demonstrated and more research is needed.

This cross-sectional questionnaire study surveyed 355 Polish physicians about EMF health effects and electromagnetic hypersensitivity (EHS). Physicians reported limited knowledge and low familiarity with WHO guidance for managing people who believe they are hypersensitive to EMF, though most were willing to learn more. Many physicians reported encountering patients attributing symptoms to EMF, which the authors frame as highlighting a need for improved physician education and reliable public information.

This Mendelian randomization study assessed whether duration of mobile phone use is causally related to stroke outcomes using GWAS-derived SNP instruments. The inverse-variance weighted analysis reported a significant increased risk for large artery atherosclerosis (LAAS) with longer mobile phone use duration, while other stroke outcomes showed no significant associations. Sensitivity analyses (including MR-Egger and heterogeneity/asymmetry tests) were reported as suggesting the LAAS finding was robust.

This animal study used metabolomics to assess metabolic changes in male Drosophila melanogaster exposed to 3.5 GHz RF-EMF at 0.1, 1, and 10 W/m². It reports disruptions in four metabolic pathways and 34 differential metabolites, with significant decreases in several metabolites including GABA, glucose-6-phosphate, and AMP. The authors interpret the findings as suggesting RF-EMF-related metabolic disturbance, while noting no clear dose-dependent pattern.
